Broken already??!!!!

Yes, I have managed to break a component of the Guitar Hero drum set.
After rigging all the drum and cymbal pads with dish towels to dampen the sound, I figured I had solved my problems with the noise and thus all my drumming problems for now. But NO!!

After a long morning of job searching, I look to my Guitar Hero set list for some comfort. After playing for a bit and finally being able to download Black Betty, I see that the YELLOW cymbal pad is hanging a bit too low and askew. Upon further examination I see that the pad has cracked away from the mounting ring. See below.
As you can see, this makes banging out the beats to Black Betty pretty difficult.
But alas, I had a plan. After previous issues with keeping my silencer pads secured to my Rock Band kit, I found that Gorilla Glue is excellent at keeping things in place.

So with tools in hand, I set to work.
After properly cleaning and air drying the pieces, I followed the directions on the glue. Very simple procedure: Damp It, Glue It, Clamp it. After a few Q-tips worth of glue was applied to both surfaces, I was able to deftly clamp it together using one small clamp on the pad end as a stationary point to hold the large clamp in place to keep tension on the pad and mounting ring.
See Below again:



After all this was complete, it only took about 10 minutes. I swapped discs pulled out the drum set for Rock Band. As I'm preparing to complete the 80's Marathon in the Gorilla Dome, Tokyo, I realize that the RED drum pad is kind of bouncing funny when I hit it. Again, I investigate only to find that the actual plastic body of the drum set is breaking under the RED drum.
I'll update how that was fixed.
